When you’re experiencing any of the symptoms of an acidic body, eating alkaline forming foods help. While there are other factors that affect our pH levels (e.g. worries, anger, pain or any kind of stress), having alkaline foods in our system should be good.

Some of the alkaline forming foods include:

watermelon

pears

melons

papaya

cantaloupe

seaweeds

apples

asparagus

okra

beets

strawberries

ginger

grains

lettuce

bananas

carrots

celery

spinach

limes

kiwi

Notice how alkaline forming foods are mostly fruits and vegetables? Aside from being alkaline forming, we benefit a lot them since they are packed with phyto-nutrients, anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals.

During digestion, these alkaline forming foods help with the distribution of nutrients across our body. They also help with the removal of toxic wastes from our system.
